Quick answer
FCE8 on a Whirlpool range: check the SAID number and the appliance type and model number chosen during registration.
Model note: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so FCE8 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Mean
Code listed on Whirlpool Product Help; the page gives only reset steps and no stated cause.
FCE8 is listed for ranges. The manufacturer’s help entry deals with a “Registration Error” that can appear when connecting the appliance.
Two things to check
Was the SAID number entered correctly? If it was entered incorrectly, the “Registration Error” appears. Try entering the number again.
Was the correct appliance type and model number selected at the start of registration? The wrong choice also brings up the “Registration Error”.
